HANDSOME SHOWING BY THE NEW BUSINESS
COLLEGE.
Professor J. G. cambridge, formerly of
Stockton, a successful manager of many
years experience, makes an exhibit on the
upper floor in the east end of the Pavilion
in the name of Bainbridge's Business Col
lege and Normal School. The college is on
X street, between Ninth and Tenth, adioin-
ing the State-house Hotel, and the first
term opens on October Sd. Space for max
ing the exhibit was not secured till almost
time for the fair TO open; and although ell
egant specimens of business writing, card
work and fiourishing attract general atten-
ton and equal to any ever shown here. the
whole were executed and arranged during
the forty-eight hours preceding the OPEN
ing of the fair
The training OF young men and Young
women for practical business is recognized
as the need of the day, and that the desired
end is attained at this school is evidenced
by the display of everyday business forms
shown, selected from the stock used in the
regular school course, and which necessa-
rily accustoms and familiarizes the pupil
with their various uses. The curriculum
embraces full business course-teachers'
review course, two-years' normal course.
shorthand and type-writing, and music
vocal and instrumental. Displays of this
character are particularly valuable, in that
they acquaint people with the best class of
schooling, and are thus worthy of especial
commentator.
STILL AT THE FRONT.
The most interesting and extensive dis
play in the line of harvesters, hay-presses
and grain cleaners ever made in the Pa
vlllon is that made this year of their own
manufacture, by the Stockton Combined
Harvester and Agricultural Works. The
first machine which achieved any degree of
success and solved the problem of cheap
method of harvesting was the
HoUsER COMBINED HEADER AND THRAsHER.
Which is more favoratly known through
out the State than any combined machine.
and which, with new improvements as con
structed for the season of 1SSS. is. now on
exhibition. For the general information
OF those who have no personal knowledge
OF the scope and power of these harvesters
we will note that this machine
is thirty. foot cut header, with complete
thrashing machine attachment, that moves
maleshcally through the heaviest grain.
and at the rate of over thirty acres per dav
the crop is headed, thrashed, cleaned and
sacked Tor market. The principal new i'm
provement consists of an extra cleaner
with double shoe, that has been thor
oughly tested, and which will insure better
work than is possible to be attained with
any other harvester. The fact that not one
OF these machines has ever made failure,
not one ever been returned to the works,
and with over four hundred now in use
speaks volumes in itself. That this is
coast invention Caifornians may well feel
proud, and visitors to the State Fair will
long remember the handsome tribute paid to
this machine and its inventor by the ladies
having in charge the San Joaquin county
exhibit. For background TO their display
is an immense screen, Is feet 10 inches
long by 10 feet wide, on which is seen
artistically designed and handsomely
wrought the Houser Harvester" The
whole is made with heads of club wheat
interspersed with occasional heads of bar
ley and oats, and shaded with tinted straws
in such q way as 70 make q complete pic
ture OF this machine at work in a field of
wheat. Although portion of the county
exhibit that secured the first prize, the
committee deemed this feature of such spe-
cial merit that they complimented the la
dies with the State Agricultural Society's
diploma. For rolling foolhill lands and
for small farms the company manufacture

THE SMALL HoUsER,
Which cuts from ten to twelve feet. has
twenty siX-inch cylinder and is worked
with from ten TO fourteen animals. All
the improvements embodied in the larger
machine are found in this, and they are
guaranteed to do perfect work where prop
erly handled, and as a proof of their merit
they can be found in every large grain
growing district in California. ALWAYS
victorious and no longer an experiment,
their future is only limited by the demands
OF the territory to which their use is
adapted.
THE LIGHTNING HAY PRESS
They exhibit is Miller's patent. with a ca
pacity of from thirty 10 forty tons per day.
This press requires no tramping, having
drop 10 pack tie hay chamber before press
ing. and as the feed opening is provided
with large sideboards and feed apron
that keeps the feeder employed preparing
for the next bale while the bale in
the press is being tied and discharged, it is
practically perpetual bailer. This press
IS easily moved, makes a bale 8 feet 10
inches long, Is inches high and 81 inches
thick, requires four men ard two animals
TO do rapid work and has received the
highest award.
THE ANGLE SIEVE GRAIN CLEANER
And separator is without any question the
champion grain cleaner and Separator of
